So, the infinite forest I where the Vex simulate all the possible outcomes on different timelines and realities. So, if we destroyed it, would the Vex consumed planets not be Vex consumed? See this: If we destroy the Infinite Forest, from that moment on all of the Vex simulations will end, creating a disruption on the network. See, the Infinite Forest is always working, simulating everything. If we stopped the simulations, the Vex wouldn’t gather more data, rendering their ability to try to predict the future useless. As so, you might say: “but they have been gathering data for a long time!”. But you see, you still go to the past simulation to kill the Root Mind, who was transforming Mercury. Even though that might slow their progress, they can simply rebuild the simulation. If we end the simulation permanently, they cannot predict that anymore, and in theory reversing Mercury’s, Nessus’ and other planets’ corruption. Because the past, the present and the future are interlinked, obviously. An action in the past changes the present and an action in the present changes the future. But in this case an action in the future changes the past, as the past is actually moving in an different reality, a reality where the Vex Have just arrived on Sol, on one that they just started corrupting Mercury and one that they just finished corrupting Mercury. If we stop their ability of controlling that and being able to predict outcomes trough the simulations, they might return to ground zero, rendering them vulnerable. Now, did you understand any of this? Really, I don’t even know if I did, but it makes some sense...
